<h2>\maketitle</h2>


<p><tt>\maketitle</tt></p>


<p>The <tt>\maketitle</tt> command generates a title on a

    separate title page - except in the article style, where the

    title normally goes at the top of the first page. Information

    used to produce the title is obtained from the following

    declarations, which should precede the <tt>\maketitle</tt> command.</p>


<ul>

    <li><tt><a href="ltx-203.html">\author</a></tt></li>

    <li><tt><a href="ltx-217.html">\date</a></tt></li>

    <li><tt><a href="ltx-324.html">\thanks</a></tt></li>

    <li><tt><a href="ltx-329.html">\title</a></tt></li>

</ul>


<p>The <a href="ltx-78.html">Titlepage Environment</a> allows

    you to design your own title page, rather than using that

    created by the <tt>\maketitle</tt> command whose format is

    determined by the <a href="ltx-22.html">document style</a>.</p>
